Award-winning children’s theatre coming to Thornton-Cleveleys

A rip-ROAR-ing adventure for children is coming to Thornton Little Theatre for one day only, on Friday 10 October.

Billy, The Monster and Me! is an
interactive show from professional theatre company Colour the Clouds that’s
suitable for the whole family.

Tickets for the 2pm show are
available directly from the venue by calling the box office on 01253 887693 and
include a free drama workshop at 1pm.

Billy, The Monster and Me! was
first performed at last year’s 24:7 Theatre Festival in Manchester where it won
Audience Voted Best Production and has since gone on to feature up and down the
country including a performance at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Suitable for pre school children, the play
follows the adventures of Billy on the day a monster appears in his bedroom
just as his family are too busy to help.

Children and adults alike are
invited to come and join Team Billy to help him rescue his family from meeting
a very sticky end! Can YOU help save the day?

The show
forms part of Spot On Lancashire’s autumn season, which brings high quality
live arts events to around 50 small venues across rural Lancashire each year.
It is subsidised by Big Imaginations children’s theatre consortium, “Bringing
Children’s Theatre to the North West”.

Spot On
Director, Sue Robinson, was excited to include Billy, The Monster and Me! in
the programme, saying:

“This is
a wonderful piece of children’s theatre that has been warmly received
everywhere it’s been. It’ll keep both kids and their parents hooked for the
entire duration. They’ve played some big UK cities already, so we’re delighted
that Billy’s adventures are now coming to Thornton-Cleveleys!”

Billy
the Monster and Me is coming to Thornton Little Theatre on Friday 10 October at
2pm. Tickets are £6 for adults and £4 for children. Places for the drama
workshop are limited so be sure to book early and call us to confirm your place
at the workshop.
